Current Database

This exhibit features the text-based database that forms the basis for the Laboring-Class Poets Online Project. It has been developed from the work of a group of scholars who have been working in the field of labouring-class poetry over the past three decades. In additional to our individual research data it holds information extensively compiled by the database editor from bibliographical and other sources. The main section of the database is an alphabetical listing, currently of 1,719 named poets.
